Change History (11)

For what it is worth, I don't know if -R was ever meant to be enabled by default. I think the idea might have been that it would be too easy to mistakenly use -R instead of -r and with no warning at all your data would be deleted. By having to use --remove-and-delete it is quite a bit more obvious what you are doing.

Now ticket:5506 put the -R in the manpage, but -R actually wasn't enabled then, so I'm not sure why we got r14211.

The original code for transmission-remote's remove-and-delete stems from remote.c line 102 changeset 7664 and r7733 and it's not obvious to me the -R option always being disabled was a bug. It's been this way for a long time.
